I know I'm not the only Amazing Race fan, since Thunder Thghs got me to check it out in the first place, so how do you like the current teams? Who do you think will win? Who's going to need couple's counseling?

I think this season has some good players. I like the Rockers but they didn't do as well as I hoped.

Well, thanks for taking the bait! Actually digging back it was season 8 - the infamous Family Edition. My wife and I along with a few of our friends all managed to get picked to work as extras for the Washington DC leg of the race.

It was a "spy" theme and the contestants had to switch breifcases with an "agent" to get the next clue. The hitch: 50 people carried briefcases but only 10 had clues.

Mind you, in post 9/11 Washington DC, the US Park Service was flooded with calls about people walking around the monuments carrying briefcases.

Better still - nothing like wearing a suit and tie walking around for four hours on a sunny 80 degree DC day.

I like the amputee team but I'm not sure they'll have the stamina to survive. I wanted to like the twins and the blond athletes under my "keep the most attractive girls on the show initiative" but they both are starting to annoy me... too much unhelpful yelling, especially from the twins. One team I'm surprised I like is the UT couple. Most couples are terrible to each other and I assumed the jock and cheerleader would be like that, but they seem really good to each other. Not interesting enough to get much screen time, but if they keep doing well that will change.
